This is an ancient legend handed down from the world of two-dimensional music, and Hiroyuki Sawano, who likes to smash keyboards as the name of songs, is a Japanese composer and arranger. Born in Tokyo on September 12, 1980. He composes and arranges music for television series, animation, films, and film music, and also writes music for many artists. The firm is legendoor. His seven songs "βίος", "aliez", "hill of sorrow", "the reluctant heroes", "ətæk 0n tάɪtn", "gong 4n", "a letter<nzk ver.>" have been called the Seven Divine Comedies by some friends.
Life: βίος
The episode "βίος", which began airing in October 2011, was composed by Hiroyuki Sawano and sung by Kobayashi, who was the creator of the animation soundtrack, and appeared for the first time in the first episode of the anime. The song name βίος comes from the ancient Greek word meaning "life". Most of the songs in the anime are drawn from the chest of the wedge, so it is also known as the "Sword Drawing Divine Comedy".
"βios" is selected from the Crown of Sin soundtrack collection and is one of the masterpieces of Ze Shu vocal. The song is a role model for Uncle Ze in terms of arrangement, melody, and vocals. And the rest of the song is also a classic. The accompaniment of the whole song is mainly based on electric music and drum beats, which is well integrated, well connected, and the sense of picture is extremely grand. The arrangement is also very innovative, and there is no part that is without features. For example, a singing by Kobayashi at the beginning is rarely used in popular music.
Lie: aliez
Aliez is one of the eds in the Japanese anime aldnoah zero.
Since the soundtrack's variational crossword symphony (mkaliez) first appeared in the first episode of the Martian Knights as the explosion began to approach Earth, it is often praised as the "Nuclear Explosion Divine Comedy". The Nuclear Explosion Divine Comedy has also been complained that it is "a song written by sawano Daijin being pressed on the keyboard by Zi Mama with his face".
Most people know that in Hiroyuki Sawano's works, the main tone of the passionate symphony is often able to stir up the strongest emotions in people's hearts, and Aliez is no exception. The drum beats in the opening section are rhythmic, yet not noisy, and the peaceful prelude moves the listener's pace slightly slowly into the upcoming main section. The singer's calm voice is not so much a performance as it is a general conversation to the audience. However, the moment the song enters the climax, the language changes from Japanese to English and German, and the talk changes to shouting, and the calm suddenly becomes exciting, which makes people feel excited. Although sung by different singers, no matter which version, it gives people a shock from the inside out.
悲恸：hill of sorrow
Hill of Sorrow is also from the GC soundtrack. The song can let people enter the realm of the song at the beginning, and the beginning uses an electric tone in the bass area, which well reflects the strong momentum of this song. And the electric sound gives people the feeling of a fast-firing gun, which makes people think of war in a joint atmosphere, which is also very compatible with some scenes of GC. The vocals push the whole piece to the climax from the very beginning, and the effect is no less than the real climax, so this song has always made people in a state of excitement and excitement, which is also one of the characteristics of Uncle Ze's music.
The lyrics of this song are mpi, so I think one of the advantages is that he has the deepest understanding of his words, so his singing is full of emotion, and Uncle Tongze integrates that victorious belief and high emotion into every note.
The reluctant heroes
"Ethereal ethereal" and "rainstorm and wind" seem to be opposites and contradictions, but for Sawano, the two are the existence that can be fused. The poetry of life that spirals and rises in the full mood and bright rhythm, like the freedom to run freely on the field, and like the comfort of overlooking the world at the top of the mountain, can make people forget their troubles and face everything in life with a bright smile.
The reluctant heroes The first full appearance of this song is the first time the captain of the anime shows his whirlwind slash bgm, in fact, initially doubted for a long time, from the lyrics of this song how can it not look like a battle song? But now, it feels like the song is a good match for his debut. It tells us from the beginning that the captain in this work will definitely not be the traditional hero of the previous genre.
进击：ətæk 0n tάɪtn / attack on titan
The song begins with a calm electric tone, followed by a sudden rhythm, slow drum beats, heavy and cluttered, giving people a thrilling feeling of step by step. Then suddenly came a holy vocal, the tune was slow and high, and the sense of horror was deeply reflected in the heart.
After a brief chant, there is a rapid and compact electric sound, the rhythm is unchanged, coupled with the vocal of sayule, eerie, sad, terrifying and desperate atmosphere is pervasive. This is followed by a vocal consisting of two short syllables in each group, small and powerful, followed by the natural addition of the roar of the electric guitar, and the rhythm of the drums changing, suggesting that the fierce battle has been fully unfolded. After a short tap drum, it is the climax of the whole song, with the roar of the guitar and the drums, this precious half minute contains all the emotions in this anime: anger, hatred, passion, jealousy, doubt, sadness.......
Rage: Gong Gong4n
This song is used in the opening part of each episode of the anime, but it was originally written for the scene of the "pursuit battle" and then written for the battle scene. The piece itself is very interesting, this is an orchestra song with the accordion as the main instrument.
The name of this song is very distinctive, the Japanese pronunciation of the gong is "Dora", just like the Japanese English dra, connected to the Japanese English dragon, that is, the meaning of the dragon, 4n is sin, that is, sin, and the animation male protagonist has a close connection.
Gong Gong4n Each episode of the anime begins almost like an op-like bgm, quite like an epic unfolding bgm isn't it, what is more rare is that this song's "Da-Da-Da" changes speed several times, getting slower and slower, turning from the eye-catching front desk to the foreground. The use of gradients in this way is really very clever, the whole song is not for obsessive-compulsive disorder to spell long songs, and force obsessive-compulsive listeners to take apart the pieces, but a very complete and coherent one, do not need obsessive-compulsive friends to move the knife.
信念：a letter<nzk ver.>
"a letter" is an episode in the anime "Gundam uc", and its melody is full of sad hope and ethereal, which is loved by many friends. a letter is a repertoire of Hiroyuki Sawano's transformation, without the grand sense of shock like the past excessive symphony, but with a little modification, the accidental use of guitar and violin as the main theme of the front and back solo, and then with the cya, who had just returned from abroad at that time, the main vocals, the instruments include: drum kits, electronic keyboards, violins, guitars, pianos. The music effect is amazing!
I believe that everyone is no stranger to Gundam, so don't say more nonsense ~ small friends go to appreciate it ~
